Basically it attempted to connect to 3g, but got denied. However if I switched the phone to 3g only..it kept trying over and over again to connect..then it did connect.

O2 UK seem to have fixed the bug within the last 2 days..it is now auto switching from 2g to 3g.

I think its about damn time all 2G was removed from UK airwaves..its 2013, not 2003!! Anyone who needs 2g could buy some converter box that acts like a hotspot and transmits very low power 2g to their old school phones/devices. (shouldn't be hard to make) Problem solved!
